I did something similar.
5x5 front and back squat at 225
Than 5x10 leg press with 540 and did calf raises on the warmup sets. Legs are killing me.

 

I was gonna do heavier leg presses but I couldnt find any extra plates

Had a hard time walking up stairs to get to class though

 

Lol yup stairs suck. And they arent gonna be any better tomorrow.

 

I'm right there with ya. Tomorrow and Wednesday are gonna suck. The 2nd day after is always the worst for me. And, of course, I have class tomorrow. 3rd floor, too...elevators are for pussies.

Nice! One of the best feelings ever! Next stop, 250!!! It took me about 2 months to get from 225 to 250...I stayed at 250 for about 2 months straight. I COULDN'T get past it...until about 3 months ago I finally passed it...now I've been at 275 for about a month...time to break out the Wheaties

 

thats legit dude!! haha anything that helps right?!!?

Ill stay with 225 next week for sure, slowly progress ... fugn love it

 

I messed up guys.... i did back today instead of chest.... i brought shame to all bros

 

I did shoulders today

 

Debating whether or not to start creatine again....

I've been off of it for about a year now, but I'm starting to plateau strengthwise.

I never load, but just take 1/2 servings to supplement pre's; think I might start that again to try push my PR's a little

 

i love it... I loaded for a week (as per directions) and have been on it for about 3 months

 

Just eat a shit ton and a half and switch to high reps heavy weight

 

I'm eating as much as I can, but class and work is stopping me from going full fatass. haha

Everything on campus besides cafe food is super expensive...and my university has decided not to pay me yet...and it's been 2 months. So I'm hobo-ing everything that isnt cafe food.


1 pasta bowl+breadsticks from the dominos on campus is seventeen fucking dollars.

 

Well if you cant go full fat ass, have you thought about writing a new workout plan? I've had to change mine since school started again



Good lord man thats some $$$!!!!

 

I've been trying to add more movement/pl workouts like cleans..think I might just switch back to "normal" exercises.

Still doing a lot of cardio too....might have to cut some of that back.

run to/from the gym every day is 4 miles; 20-24 miles a week just from going to the gym

 

only 5g?

my new pre has 2. I'll probably just go buy some cheap powder the next time im in town

 

Love progress. Since I hit my PR of 255 I haven't been able to work chest (didn't go to the gym last week). Not looking forward to that extra weight in the workouts, but love goin up!

I did legs too. 3 x 10 @185, 205, 225, supersetted with 3x15 calf raises since I already had the bar on my shoulders.

3x10 leg curls supersetted with 3x15 calf raises @ 265

3x10 leg extensions supersetted with 3x15 Calf raises @ 265

Then did shoulders. My calves are DEAD. I love it.

I never load, either. Usually take it for a couple months or so, 1 scoop before workout, 1 after, then go off of it for 2-3 weeks.

I've been eating a lot of subway lately. A lot of calories, carbs, and protein for like $5.

 

footlongs are $7 here.

and $9 on campus.

BITCHES

 

Yea...only 5 g. That's why I never loaded. You'll just waste creatine cuz your body can't use it all.


I cut all cardio out right now since I'm trying to gain weight. It's a great feeling to not run...

 

Mine usually runs $7, but Setptember was "Subtember", so all footlongs were $5. Their breakfast subs are delicious, too. My local one has footlong breakfast sub (Ham, turkey, bacon, eggs, cheese, on flatbread) for like $4
